Abstract
A factorial experiment was conducted during three successive cropping seasons to investigate the effects of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and manure on the growth and yield of Brussels sprouts. Plant development was delayed by a lack of phosphorus. Nitrogen and phosphorus applications decreased the yields of small sprouts and increased the yields of those greater than 2.3 cm in diameter. Total marketable yields were substantially increased by nitrogen and phosphorus but were only slightly affected by rates of applied potassium. Yield increases from high rates of nitrogen were obtained only when accompanied by adequate phosphorus. A manure treatment slightly increased marketable yields but the effect was usually not significant.
